Right Here, Right Now

Accountant and financial advisor Lacey Chamberlain doesn’t consider herself a control freak. She’s merely a planner—orderly, neat, and content in her tidy little life. When a marketing firm moves into the empty office next door, the loud-music-playing, stinky-food-ordering, kickball-in-the-hall staff make Lacey crazy.

Marketing expert Alicia Wright is spontaneous, flies by the seat of her pants, and lives in the moment—all the things Lacey is not. She’s also gorgeous, thoughtful, and seems determined to make Lacey like her.

They say opposites attract, but for how long? And is that really a good idea?

Right Here, Right Now

What happens when you've already given your heart and love finds you again?

Three years after Courtney McAllister loses her partner in a car accident, she's finally trying to move forward. She's even dated halheartedly over the past year, but no one is able to penetrate her emotional barricades until she meets aggressive real estate broker Rachel Hart. Despite Rachel's cool facade, Courtney is drawn to her—when she isn't furious with her. Still, despite an undeniable attraction, Courtney has given her heart once and doesn't have room for that kind of love in her life again. Rachel isn't looking for love, especially not with a woman who belongs to someone else, and taking second place has never been her long suit.

Life gets complicated when love turns out to be nothing like you expected - and the woman you want is too close to touch.

Gretchen Kaiser is a workaholic corporate honcho with issues she's got daddy issues, she's got female-executive-in-a-man's-world issues, and she's got one night stand issues. What she doesn't have are love issues. She isn't looking for it, she doesn't feel she needs it, and she doesn't expect to find it...certainly not right under her nose. Kylie O'Brien is the kind of girl who believes in true love and is willing to wait until it shows up at her door. Her best friend Mick would sweep her off her feet given the chance, but Mick doesn't make Kylie feel the way true love should. And now Kylie has to worry about her new boss Gretchen Kaiser's icy reserve makes life as her administrative assistant a challenge. It doesn't matter one damn bit that Gretchen is extremely attractive with a voice as rich and smooth as melted chocolate. It absolutely doesn't...

Sarah Buchanan would never in a million years have used those words to describe herself. Never. But it's been almost a year since her longtime girlfriend left her for a man, and she's suddenly realized that those words now describe her with frightening accuracy, along with one more: boring. Deciding it's time to escape her disaster of a life, at least long enough to turn it around, she takes a temporary position with her company overseas. The hardest part is leaving her blue-eyed dog, Bentley, behind. But at least he's in the capable hands of her family. She thinks.

Natalie Fox is the exact opposite of Sarah. She's flighty, spontaneous, and lives in The Now. It's how she's always been, and for better or for worse, Natalie loves her carefree life. When she finds a stray, skinny, terrified dog with blue eyes outside the coffee shop where she works and decides to adopt him as her own, things seem just about perfect to her.

Take two stubborn, polar opposites with an attraction for one another they're trying desperately to ignore; throw in a couple of wise Italians, a handful of quirky friends, some homemade cannoli, and a far-too-observant dog; stir vigorously, then sit back, relax, and enjoy...

Seven women, seven days. A lot can happen. There are three things that Amy Forrester loves most in the world: Jo, her wife of fifteen years; spending time with her closest friends; and her cabin in the woods. What better way to spend the week between Christmas and New Year's than having all three! When she invites her three best friends to join her and Jo in their mountain hideaway, all she expects is good food, fine wine, and lively conversation.

Unfortunately for Amy, there are three things that she doesn't count on: her best friend's relationship is falling apart; her two other friends share a secret that causes nothing but conflict and discomfort; and the arrival of Jo's fly-by-the-seat-oher-pants niece Darby, who has a habit of leaving broken hearts in her wake.

Childhood friends, new lovers, and old rivals share beginnings, endings, and the uncommon bonds of friendship in a story filled with romance and possibility.

Welcome to Junebug Farms, a successful, well-known animal shelter in upstate New York, where every day brings something new—love, stress, heartbreak, warmth—and not just from the animals.

Catherine Gardner knows what it means to work hard. Growing up with little, it's pretty much all she's done for most of her life. As the bookkeeper for Junebug Farms, she handles the money. When Catherine finds herself undeniably attracted to Emily Breckenridge, daughter of the shelter’s largest donor, it doesn't sit well with her. At all.

Emily Breckenridge has spent her life in the shadows of both her family’s money and her brother Clark. But when the reins of the family’s charity foundation are taken from Clark and handed to Emily, it’s her chance to shine on her own. Everything about Catherine Gardner is unexpected, from her emotional reserve to the crazy magnetic pull she has…one Emily can’t seem to fight…

The second in the Puppy Love Romances by award-winning author Georgia Beers.

Starting a new life in a new city is never easy, but Kelsey Peterson is managing. She owns her own specialty shop, she’s made some new friends, and she’s finally feeling like she’s ready to put down some roots in this small Chicago suburb. She’s even struck up some regular flirtatious banter with that sexy blonde she continually runs into at Starbucks. But when her business and personal life unexpectedly collide, Kelsey’s confidence in her newfound happiness starts to slip through her fingers, and the hardest part is figuring out what matters most...

A sweet, conventional romance from a strong author in the genre. The characters were interesting individuals, with idiosyncratic differences that created sufficient tension in the plot, but levels of chemistry that underscored their suitability for each other. I will continue to follow Ms. Beer's work.

Another great book from Georgia Beers

By Netgalley.com on Dec 6, 2017 06:12

Well honestly I wasn’t expecting the book I just read, there was more than one occasion that the storyline would go down an avenue that was unexpected and it just made it all the more exciting.

Lacey is a hard working, motivated and dedicated accountant. She’s got her life plan and she sticking to it. That is until devil may care, Alicia moves into the office space next door. Her unconventional way of doing things has Lacey a little more than just intrigued.

I thought this would be a nice light romance and it was to a certain extent but it also drew me in and made me stay up through the night to finish it. The angst was written well but not overpoweringly so, just enough for you to have the heart sinking moment of ‘will they make it’ and then you realise, they have to because they are made for each other.

And boy are they made for each other. Opposite’s attract is one thing but Alicia and Lacey are the ying to each others yang. Their polar opposite personalities complement each other and from the moment they meet there is the chemistry that Georgia Beers is known for writing so perfectly. Normally I’m gushing about Georgia Beers writing the best first kiss scenes but in this book, it’s ALL the kisses after the first that got my blood pumping, phew! Hot!

All in all, another great book from Georgia Beers. I’m excited about what’s coming next.

A totally heart warming story

I could fall in love with both of these wonderful ladies and given how much I adore her books I could probably fall for Georgia Beers too! Georgia’s books are the epitome of romances, of falling in love, of finding your soul mate. She’s done it again with a totally heart warming story, with a cute doggie as the icing on the cake.

Refreshing

Georgia Beers is one of my favorite lesfic authors, so as soon as a new book by her is available I must read it right away. As usual with her novels, the characters are likable and sweet and the romance develops at a nice steady pace, it doesn't feel rushed.

This book made me cry a bit (for me, that’s always a good sign). I liked that it wasn’t that predictable. Sure, we know the typical formula of a romance novel, and this one follows it to a T, but at the same time it surprised me quite a bit. That was refreshing...
